Yeah Indy, I just don't do mornings very well! My husband is a chatterbox and knows to just leave me alone until about 10:30 or so. Sometimes he forgets and he'll ramble incessantly which irritates me even more but I'll just ignore him until he "get's it". Occasionally I have to grunt in response and then he knows to back off! Gosh, isn't that awful?? Honestly, I really am a pleasant person otherwise!!!
I just don't trust people who are peppy in the morning...it's not right! LOL!
I describe us as "He wants to get up early and go to breakfast. I want to sleep in and go to lunch."
When we were first married, he came into the bedroom, shook me by the shoulder and said, "honey? honey? don't you want to get up and make sunday breakfast?" I pried open one eye, looked at the clock and said, "Are you freakin' kidding me? It's only 9:30 in the morning!"

Oh my...NO I DON'T!!! 
This reminds me of two more things to add to my list. I hate it when my husband says to me "What are we planning for dinner?" I finally asked him "Do you mean what am I making for dinner? Do you have any intention of having any part of the preparation? You don't so it isn't WE planning anything for dinner, is it?" He got all irate and asked what was he supposed to say, then? I told him "What are you making for dinner" would be fine, at least that would acknowledge that he has no part in it. For some reason that doesn't bother me, but the "we" sets me off!
The other thing is that I don't like morning converstion, but the WORST is when someone tries to talk to me through the bathroom door! My kids used to do that to me first thing in the morning, I'd be in trying to get into the shower and they'd be on the other side of the door trying to have a conversation. DO YOU SEE THE CLOSED DOOR? That means no conversing! They'll still try to talk to me when I go into the downstairs bathroom and I just yell "I can't hear you!" even though they know I can. Bathroom door closed=wall of silence.

OMG so funny but SO TRUE!!

What drives me nuts is that my husband asks that and then wants a bunch of choices. I'm sorry, if you want choices go to a restaurant. I have the menu for the two weeks posted on the fridge, all he has to do is get off his butt and look at it.
I'm kind of funny about milk too. Growing up, a few minutes before dinner my brother liked to pour a glass of milk and let it sit to warm up a bit. That grossed me out! If I drink milk it has to be ice cold. Milk is also one of those things you don't share!! I had a friend over as a teenager and my mom made brownies and I poured myself a glass of milk and when I turned around to put the milk away, she picked it up and took a drink, YUCK ! I told her to keep it!
HeHe Loving this thread!!!
I am a weirdo because-
after reading this I realized- I don't mind my food touching on the plate, but don't like my foods mixed on my fork- example- If I am eating pie- I will eating the crust separate from the filling, separate from the topping. I eat each food separately.
-I don't like cold fruit. Room temp please!
I have to bag my own groceries. My dad owned a grocery so I KNOW how to pack a bag. I hate when someone is bagging and I say to them - please fill the bags full and then they go and double bag them!!! Just let me do it myself. LOL
Pet peeve at the moment is stopping at a stop sign pulling up to the line- but you can't because someone on their cell phone driving a big a$$ SUV cut the corner so you have to stop short. ARGHHH!
I like the weight of covers on when I sleep, and I have to breathe cool, crisp air when I sleep or I feel like I am suffocating.
ETA- oh yeah- flying insects, esp moths. Yuck!
Just some minor stuff for me. Milk has to have ice in it. The colder the better.
DO NOT talk to me when I am talking on the phone. I especially dislike it when the person on the other end of the phone stops talking to me to converse with someone in the room with them. I have been known to hang up on these people. 
I also don't do mornings well. I once worked with one of those dreadfully cheery morning people and was the only one in the office not invited to her wedding. Why you ask?? BECAUSE I DID NOT WISH HER A "GOOD MORNING" and her poor little feelings were hurt. Sheesh.
I have to say I am not a morning person. I really don't like to be talked to as soon as I get up. I babysit for my neighbor and she told me one day that I was such a different person in the afternoon than when she dropped her kids off in the morning. I need a little time to wake up and lots of coffee!!

I am right there with you on this one. I have to have my milk cold. Once it hits room temperature, I'm out.
This is more along the lines of a pet peeve, but I cannot stand to be on the phone with someone who is also at their computer, wanting to read me something funny in their email or something. JUST SEND IT TO ME!!! Or when someone is also watching TV while talking to me, and running commentary to me about what they are watching. GOT BETTER THINGS TO DO!!!
FlourPots - I just realized that I forgot to comment on your last post...your sister gets fake toenails??? I'm so confused right now!! LOL - why? And why so long??? Eeewww....that really freaks me out!
Can't walk on a floor bare...walk on sides of feet fast until I reach carpet (yeah looking like a monkey)
That right there is a must see!!!!

ARG! Mine does that and I HATE IT! But what's worse is he will not say anything and just set frozen meat out on the counter and make plans for what I can cook for him with it regaurdless of wether we have the needed ingreedients or if there is enough for all 6 of us!
OK one more thing about me.
I will not cook oddle noodle soups! Nope. Just crack it apart and eat it crunchy.

My son started doing that this summer! I thought it was weird at first, but I figure it's like eating crackers, and at least he's not eating all that sodium in the broth mixture!

This is the point where my son says "Who's we, do you have a mouse in your pocket?"
Him: What's for dinner
Me: We're having blah blah blah.
Him: (whining) I dont' want tha-a-a-a-a-t!
Me: I'm sorry ... what were YOU planning on cooking?
--------------------
Me: What do you want for dinner?
Him: Whatever you feel like making.
Me: Well, I feel like making nothing,so that's what we're having. YOu're on your own.
When I am going through an automatic door (like at a grocery store) I like to pretend that I am a Jedi Knight from Star Wars and am using "The Force" to open the door!

LMAO! Now that is a good one.
Ok so I have one that probably isn't something weird about me but it happened to me and it was ANNOYING (to say the least!)
I was at the OBGYN having a six week ultrasound done. The ultrasound was internal because of how early in the pregnancy it was, so that was awkward and weird to begin with. My legs up in the stirrups, the technician moving her ultrasound 'wand' around in there trying to get a good view and her cell phone rings...
AND SHE ANSWERS IT, AND HAS A CONVERSATION WITH SOMEONE!
errrr...
I hate long toe nails, they creep me out.
I also do this thing (I worry way too much) where I will see something happening in my mind and it freaks me out. example- I'm driving through an intersection, in my mind I see a car running the red light and hitting me. FREAKS me out! I'm a weirdo :/ lol

That's hilarious!! Very cute. See, if that were me, I'd be on the Enterprise.

Um... RIGHT. I'd have told her pretty blatantly to get off the damn phone and worry about her job.

That's what I tell her...WHY the hell???
She thinks her big toenails are too short, so they look weird when painted.
As for the length...she says, "that's how they do it"...I say, "you're paying, I'm pretty sure you can demand a shorter nail!!" LOL
I just try not to look down at the claws when she has them done.
She actually has normal looking, cute feet without them.
Um... RIGHT. I'd have told her pretty blatantly to get off the damn phone and worry about her job.
I know I think I was just so shocked by it...
[quote="CakesByJen2"]I only have one kinda odd fear: bridges. As a kid, going to my grandma's we had to drive across two lakes with very narrow bridges, no shoulder at all, and my mom is a very bad driver. I always had it planned out in my head how I was going to get myself and the younger kids out if she crashed and went into the water.
That was the start of it, then years later after I was married and gone, there was a terrible bridge collapse in Memphis, and I found out the my family had driven across it just a half hour before the collapse going to my brothers soccer tournament. I can drive on them, but I get very tense and my heart rate goes up.
quote]
OMG!! I have the same bridge fear!! Mine is specifically worse if I can see water below me over both sides at the same time while I'm looking straight ahead (damn peripheral vision!) I feel sick to my stomach and my hands grip the wheel like there is no tomorrow.
I also hate feet and I can't eat meat if it looks like the animal it started out as. I also can't sleep at night if there's a light on in the house, I don't care if I can't see that it's on I KNOW it's on.

I don't think so!!
I feel awkward enough at those damn app. anyway. And then to have the doc elbow deep and chatting away, I don't even want to imagine. I probably would have kicked her in the head
